birds chirping

[Gerianne]

birds seem to be quiet at night and only chirp during daylight hours.
there was one summer a few years ago when a bird was chirping outside near my window at 3 AM.
it hasn't happened since and I am glad of that.

I think I would welcome every bird chirping any time during this horrible winter but back then I would have probably thrown a book out my window! lol

I have thick bushes in front of my house and the birds roost in them at night so I hear them very early in the morning as my bedroom is in front.

I am ready to hear birds chirping again because this winter is soooooo looooonnggg and cooooold!

I wouldn't want the chirping to be at 3 AM.  A quick google search may provide an explanation as to why the birds were chirping that early.

News.bbc reported that scientists from the University of Sheffield say there is a correlation between daytime noise levels and birds singing at night. Dr Fuller of University of Sheffield suggested, "The birds appear to be singing at night to avoid competition with high noise levels caused by our cities during the day."

When I was growing up there was a huge owl that hung out in the barn and he was very nocturnal, hooted all night long, we all got used to it and its hooting to the point that when it left (or died) we missed his presence sorely.

I love to wake up to birds chirping but I don't know about it happening at 3am.

I use to own a pair of love birds, they use to chirp very early in the morning and wow did they make a mess. Every day I had to clean the wall and carpet. I just had to give them away; it was just so hard and time consuming.

I love to hear birds chirp in the morning it means it going to be a very happy and warm day. The only bird I heard chirping a night are night jays.

I hear the birds chirping ALL the time outside. No matter what time it is they just keep going at it. lol

I used to always hear birds chirping in the morning when I lived in the country, but now that I moved to New York, I never hear them anymore.

I just recently moved and the same bird chirping sound seems to follow me from my old home to my new home, its so annoying

I love birds chirping and eating out of my feeder. Red birds are my favorite.

I love listening them chirping. Lately we have been so dry and no rains. I don't see lots of birds anymore compared to the previous years.
